In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Its over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
I went from canapes to boards
Bands to no records (Sorry)
You ain't got the Bentley with four doors
K-you-are-you-P-T Annie
You just bring my bottle of Rimy
Recognize a real hit when you hear one
Postin' up at the playboy Mansion
I stomp like Gortex, poetical Gortex
Bouncin' to Jigga in California
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's the N-A-T-I,
Aw you know the rest
Act silly high frequently they contest
I done tours across the seas
And been cross the world
I done it for all y'all, my cats and my dogs
It's over, cause I'm bad to the bone
Leave 'em, real diva to her own alone
I drive a Jaguar, so many different cars
Life as a pop star, shakin' 'em this hard
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
This is how life should be
My girl and my piece
Don't make me remind you
I stays VIP (Move over)
For all my dime piece and all of my G's
Hustlers and pimps with shiny wrist, makin' money
It's my turn to shine and my turn to floss
Like you played a game, I stomps the billboards
One things for sure, G's hit the door
Tone and Poke know, Natina does not play
When she get on the mike she say what she got to say
Dr.Dre and Snoop, no cause rep is ill
From East Coast to West the unforgettable skills
Bust from head to hand, sippin' on Rimy Red
Runnin' from club to club, nickels and diamond dubs
Ready to rock spots, folds and drop tops
Grew up in Gangsta rap, Natina be runnin' pop
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
Tina, Tina
I ain't even right this
I didn't write this
It's crazy
Now we're over
It's my turn
Now it's over
The game shut down, sorry
It's over, it's over
Now we're over
It's my turn

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
i used to looooove this song!! it was big when I was in elementary school & we used to sing it to people that we were breaking up with. good times.
